The player on the button moved all in for about 35,000, and Jonathan Marcu moved all in from the small blind with a similar stack.

The big blind folded, and Marcu showed AhJc to his opponent’s As5s.

The board came 8c7s3sKdQd, and Marcu won the pot with his jack. Their chip stacks were counted down, and both players had exactly 36,500. The player in the small blind was eliminated from Flight D.

Jonathan Marcu  –  78,000  (31 bb)

With about 108 players remaining from a field of 543, the average chip stack is about 100,500 (40 big blinds). This field is playing down to the final 55 players, and everyone who bags chips will finish in the money and advance to Day 2.
